Tests::

swiss-weather-api adapter for ioBroker

Connects to the great SRG-SSR weather API (https://developer.srgssr.ch/apis/srgssr-weather).
Weather-Icons are reused from https://erikflowers.github.io/weather-icons/

The SRG-SSR Weather REST API allows you to get weather forecasts and reports from more than 25.000 locations across Switzerland.

Be aware that this adapter only supports locations within Switzerland.

Getting started

1. Get a free accout on https://developer.srgssr.ch/
2. Go to "My Apps" and create a new App. This will create a specific ConsumerKey and ConsumerSecret
3. Find out Longitude / Latitude (decimal degrees) of the chosen location for which forecast is needed
4. Install this Adapter on ioBroker => This can take several minutes (~7min on a Raspberry Pi 3)
5. On Adapter Configuration fill in
   1. ConsumerKey of App
   2. ConsumerSecret of App
   3. Longitude / Latitude of the chosen swiss location for which forecast is needed. => Please use decimal degrees (for example Zürich: 47.36667 / 8.5)

This is a scheduled Adapter. It is scheduled every 30 minutes and reads the forecast API of SRG-SSR. You could change this intervall in instance-view (Schedule). A lower intervall is not recomented, since the minimal forecast is 1 hour. So please keep in mind that, after installation, it will take 30 minutes until the forecast data is delivered the frist time and the data-objects in data view are created.

On first installation you might want to check if everything works fine and don't want to wait for 30min. In this case you can change the scheduler to 1min. => If everything is working properly, please change it back to 30min.

Changelog

0.1.7

Attention: If you have already installed a previous Version of swiss-weather-api (<= 0.1.6) please remove the adapter and install it completely new. This makes shure you get the new Unit-Names for "fff" and "ffx3" which where corrected by SRG.

• (baerengraben) Added Icon-Codes -17 to -30 => These are not yet confirmed by srf - but I beleave these are correct.
• (baerengraben) SRG is now providing the correct unit-names for "fff" and "ffx3". Adaptet this in the swiss-weather-adapter. Attention: You have to reinstall the swiss-weather-api (remove and install new Version) to make shure the Object-Name gets this Update.
